Rosemarie Trockel's Forme, fonction, fétiche Explores Identity and Consumer Culture

In her work Perruque de Bardot, Rosemarie Trockel presents a seal hanging upside down with a frayed collar around its neck. This piece synthesizes questions and formal permutations from the past decade of her practice, addressing fluctuating notions of identity, consumer goods, masculinity, femininity, consciousness, and culture through manufactured and found objects that are completely transformed. The work was featured in the article published in artpress in March 1992.
